Focusing on argument analysis, this work offers a thorough exploration of Nelson's method, influenced by Kant's dialectics, and critiques the relativistic trends of the early 20th century. It analyzes the arguments of notable thinkers like Bentham, Mill, and Einstein, aiming to establish a general theory of philosophical argumentation. Nelson emphasizes that philosophical fallacies often stem from false dilemmas, which arise from the unintentional substitution of concepts. This book stands as a pioneering effort to systematically address philosophical errors in reasoning.
